One Road, One Heart
by Jessica (Nicki) Baatz
There are two people I know, they wrote the book on love.
They share a bond that was blessed from above.
They’ve weathered all storms that drive many apart.
They have made forgiving a beautiful art.
He was raised on an island, her in the midwest.
Their chances at love were very slim at best.
But though the worlds they grew up in couldn’t be farther apart,
God brought them together, now the two share one heart.
It’s been 50 years since their road together started,
Through all twists and turns that road never parted.
They’re a true perfect marriage, a fairy tale come true,
My Grandpa and Grandma, my heroes are you.
Nicki is the granddaughter of Orpha (Hoppe) Jimenez
